This procurement falls under NAICS code 513210 (Software Publishers) with a size standard of $47 million and is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside. The contracting action involves the Department of Labor's Office of the Chief Information Officer, which currently uses Senzing API for automated bulk data uploads.

Interested parties must submit capability statements by August 27, 2025, at 12:00 PM EDT, demonstrating that competition would be advantageous to the government, cost-effective, and would not cause delays. The procurement will result in a firm-fixed-price purchase order with performance commencing around September 30, 2025.

The government reserves the right to proceed with the sole source award to Senzing, Inc., regardless of responses received, and will not be responsible for any costs incurred by parties responding to this notice.
